Product description

Wine Description
This exceptional white wine presents a beautiful medium golden-gold color in the glass. The bouquet is wonderfully exotic and complex, weaving together aromas of white blossoms, vanilla, and honey with vibrant notes of pear, peach, quince, and subtle tropical undertones. On the palate, it is full bodied, rich, and plush, balanced beautifully by a soaring acidity and a distinct crystalline minerality.
Accolades
94 Points - Wine Spectator
A creamy, rich white, with salty concentration behind its cascade of creamed melon and apple, spiked with spices, ginger and white mocha -- plus a flattering brush of warm brioche. Dried garrigue and smoldering flint bring contrast, driving the long, briny finish, with grapefruit pith. Marsanne and Roussanne.
